MH7 O-ring Loaded Lip Seals
MH7 PTFE O-rings Design
- Sealability: Medium
- Wear: Medium
- Friction: Medium
- Use: Added O-Ring Performance
The Mykin High Performance MH7 seals are O-ring loaded lip seals. These PTFE O-ring seals make use of O-rings to energize and activate the sealing surface instead of metal springs. This teflon cap that surrounds this O-ring is similar to a PTFE encapsulated O-ring, except that the MH7 has superior wear qualities due to the amount of PTFE available for wear. In dynamic hydraulic or pneumatic applications, this O-ring loaded piston seal or rod seal is ideal to use when the O-ring alone will wear too quickly. It must be noted that the O-ring material must be compatible with the environment of the application.
